Feb 23: Championship Betting Preview

IT'S a massive night in the Championship with 11 games and as usual in midweek there are bound to be some shock results so go easy.

Burnley and Hull are pushing ahead and will be hoping to further enhance their promotion hopes.

Sean Dyche’s team take on Nottingham Forest at Turf Moor and should be a decent bet at just under evens.

Victory could put Burnley top of the table with Hull facing a difficult game away from home against Ipswich.

Steve Bruce’s team produced a monumental effort to get an FA Cup draw at Arsenal at the weekend and the manager rested many of his stars despite the occasion. Ipswich had a free weekend to rest legs and won't be easy to overcome.

Third-placed Middlesbrough are also bang in the promotion mix and cannot afford to make any mistakes at home to Cardiff.

Aitor Karanka’s Boro are 4-5 with McBookie to win at the Riverside but the Welsh looked good as they bashed Brighton 4-1 at the weekend.

Chris Hughton’s Seagulls will be determined to bounce back at Bristol City and are 2-1 with the like sof bet365 and BetVictor.

Sheffield Wednesday had their play-off hopes hit with a weekend loss and go home to Hillsborough to tackle QPR.

Preston were the outfit who defeated Wednesday and are looking an attractive price to build on that victory at 4-6 against bottom-club Charlton at Deepdale.

Charlton are below Bolton now and looked doomed while Neil Lennon's Trotters are at least showing a bit of fight.

They were denied a crucial win by a last-minute QPR equaliser and now head to Birmingham looking for their first away win of the season.

Brentford and Wolves at Griffin Park looks tight and 12-5 the draw will tempt punters as will the 9-4 for MK Dons and Huddersfield to draw.

Reading will be flying after their FA Cup win over West Brom and should land odds of 4-5 with bet365 at home to Rotherham.

Leeds have won just four league games at Elland Road all season and punters can have the Cottagers at nice priceof 2-1 at Betfred after winning 3-0 against Charlton.

Derby hit three goals in the last 10 minutes to win at Brentford on Saturday and could follow up with a win against a Blackburn side hammered by West Ham in the FA Cup. The Rams are a best 17-20 tomorrow at William Hill and bet365.
